Crime AND Punishment

The book is bound in red cloth, exhibiting noticeable wear and some fading. The spine and corners show signs of rubbing, and the pages have aged with some yellowing typical of vintage paperbacks. The binding remains intact, though the absence of a dust jacket means additional protection may be required for preservation.
